What does
Number One Music offer me or my band?

Number One Music offers 2
different accounts (trial and full membership)
which gives you your own website and web

This will provide you with the platform to
promote your band and to get noticed within our
community and the music industry. It will
include your bands’ profile, history, a 'music'
page where you can upload up to 30 songs, and a
'shows' page to announce dates and venues you
will be performing. We also offer a 'photo'
page, where you can display up to 30 photos, and
a contact page and message board for fans,
promoters or record companies to get in touch
with you from. Unlike some other music portals
dedicated to the promotion, we provide you with
a unique targeted e-newsletter service which
helps you to fuel your constant exposure by
using our database. Upon registering, you'll
receive a username and password, enabling you to
login to your website and edit it as often as
you like.

When users visit your bands’ mini-site or
download a song, they are monitored and recorded

you get on your site the higher up the chart you
go. So it would be useful to advertise your site
to get fans and friends to visit and get you up
that top 10 listing.
